There Are Various Structural Services That Most Engineering Companies Offer During Site Inspections.

They include:

a. Seismic upgrade

b. Code compliance and review,

c. Renovation or retrofit design,

d. Structural analysis and design,

e. Seismic analysis and design,

f. Forensic engineering (applicable to the already existing structures)

g. Building assessments.

It is crucial for a engineering team to make sure that the structural designs are sufficiently supported
and, are compliant with plans.

The architect or the engineering team should be the one's that analyze the structures, their foundations
and the activities that are carried out during renovations or retro fits.

The main function of site Inspections are to make sure all building works and, trades people have
perform their jobs according to regulations.

Remember, structural works are required to attain necessary building regulations.

The best way to go about this place of activity is a number of on-site inspections should be carried out to ensure that the minimum necessities are met, during statutory stages in the construction phase of work.

This Is Indicated By Occasions When A Building Structure
Undergo The Necessary On-Site Building Inspections

It is the obligation of the agent, and the owner of the building structure plus the builder to let the
engineering team no, about the progress of the construction phase.

Building regulations require that a engineer or builder should present official notice before sealing the job.

The inspection criteria should be unique to the plan in question so, not every stage of the building works
will apply to the owner's definitions of building works to be completed.

One day alert is necessary even though, the inspections carried out during completions, may need about
five to seven days notice.

As a matter of fact, it should highly be recommended that one employs an experienced professional to oversee the quality of works or any other contractual issue between the owner and the builder.

Surveyors differ somewhat in the on-site Inspections procedure therefore the engineering team should be notice, that a normal inspection is required which outlines, when the day to day on-site supervision is to
be accomplished.

A General On-Site Inspections Process May Be Outlined
As Shown Below:

1. The intention to begin work on the selected site and, at what stage is the work to "commencement".

Two to five days notice is the requirement here and, it can be executed at just the same period as the
excavation inspection.

2. Inspection is performed preceding the concrete placement requirement. Also, before the foundation
digging phase is carried out and, it should be a two to five day notice.

It is crucial to state that several visits should be carried out at this stage site Inspections are a must.

3. Before the foundation is covered the third inspection stage should follow the same suit.

It's between two to five day notice and, it is focused on covering of the foundations phase. This may be performed at the inspection course referred to as "damp proofing" or the over site of the project.

4. The fourth inspection stage entails the covering of the over site.

It is performed before the substance laid for the earth is covered. This is two to five day notice and, it
ensures that the damp proof casing is properly lapped with dpc.

Adequacy in preparation of the over site is also confirmed at this stage.

5. The fifth stage in site Inspections is referred to as the tanking systems. It's two to five day notice and
is carried out before the membrane or the damp proof is covered.

This stage helps making sure that the damp proof has been put into place, at the appropriate levels and,
is correctly laid.

6. The sixth stage ensures that the drains are properly laid. This is two to five day notice, prior to the
sewer and drain covering this is called the rodding points, it shows the access and cleaning side.

The drains may be tested before they are backfilled.

7. Two to five day notice is required it involves testing the drains for water rigidity and, comes at the
seventh on-site Inspections stage.

Air and water tests maybe performed at this stage after covering the ground drainage or any other pipe
fittings.

8. The eighth inspection stage should be notified within a five days period. It is the occupation stage and
should be carried out before anyone occupies the building.

It is crucial to note that the structure is substantially completed occupying it, may result into a safety
and health risks issues.

9. Five days notice should be given at this stage of the building works site Inspections are a must.

When the building works are finished and, the structure is complete. The final inspection will be followed
by issuing a completion certificate.

All these steps are taken during on-site inspections to ensure that all structures are safe and, secure
for human use.
